We Were Wrong- CME Isn't the Only Stock That Benefits From Rising Rates
Last week we explained how exchanges like CME with interest rate products were an inflationary hedge. Enter DB1, a key EU exchange for bond trading. Keep in mind that people run exchanges, and therefore they have management risk. They also have regulatory risk. They are no substitute for inert yellow and white metals that can't lie, cheat, and steal. But they are in our opinion a necessary component of a portfolio seeking to hedge against inflationary risks. Metals, Exchanges, TiPs (sort of), businesses with inelastic demand for their products are all part of a good plan to preserve your wealth's buying power. Which stocks you pick is up to you.
Seriously, these are simple, easy ways to protect yourself. Stop reading the 'END OF THE WORLD' nonsense that wants you to click and buy Gold on the spot. And you should consider that the info offered here is free, and "you get what you pay for", which is valid. It is also why our group writes under pseudonyms, considering we have exchange valuation experience and clients in the area (not CME or DB1)
We write this stuff to plant seeds for you to do your own work. And it is fun for us. Never do what we do blindly. But seek what we seek: sensible economic decision rationales. If you want deeper ideas or tactical insights, that isn't free. -Soren K.
